Bizarre Transfer

This is not the time of year when you normally read lacrosse news, but this item is just too weird to ignore. Two former Virginia lacrosse players, including 2003 All-American Joe Yevoli will play next season for Syracuse. Evidently both players have graduated from UVA and have enrolled in graduate programs at Syracuse.

I've never heard of similar transfers in major college sports before. In case you don't know, Syracuse and Virginia are pretty serious rivals. They are two of the top programs and they play each other every year. Usually when the play, one of the two teams is ranked #1.

Could you imagine something similar happening in basketball or football? Sean May suiting up for one year at Kentucky? Or maybe Ernie Sims playing his final season at Notre Dame?

Wonder how their former teammates will treat them when the Orange travel to Charlottesville next year?
